“Ban on ‘Jallikattu’ & ‘Kodipandem’ by Govt of India is an attack on Dravida culture and its integrity; this is how it is being viewed in Dakshin Hindustan,” he said.

He added: “I had observed this ‘deep hurt ‘ in people of ‘Dakshin Bharat’ while I was shooting in Pollachi (Tamilnadu) and during my political interactions in Andhra, about the ban of their respective cultural events in recent times.”
